The Masterful Coach Podcast: Coaching skill mastery, business strategy, and ideal life creation!

Confidence, providing transformation, and not getting too stuck in your own head. You need to have a handle on all three to master coaching. But what if your assessment of yourself on a 1 to 10 scale leaves you feeling doubtful?  First of all, having doubts is completely normal. That’s why holding a periodic audit of yourself is extremely valuable. You can identify any areas in which you’re struggling and make a plan to do something about each item. You can also identify areas where you’re doing well and take courage from them. To help you in your progress journey, I want to share 5 big coaching mistakes I see coaches make. Perhaps, using this information I share, you can address each more quickly or maybe even avoid them altogether. “These mistakes can actually be huge obstacles in the way of you having way more effective coaching… as you tweak this, you will notice a big, positive difference.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn 3 questions to assess yourself Confidence in coaching well Providing promised transformation The noise in your head Defining big mistakes 5 big coaching mistakes Discounting nervous system responses Misunderstanding or misusing neutral space Pushing perspective Elevating tools above clients Defining roles Contact Info and Recommended Resources Podcast episodes that pair well with this one:  Confidently Setting Your Ideal Income Goals: An Interview with Amy Latta 10 Tips for Master-Level Coaching Impact and 7-figures: An interview with Katrina Ubell How to charge for coaching even when you're scared to  Connect with Molly Claire Drop me a comment or question:  Instagram | Molly Claire Coaching IG  molly@mollyclaire.com Facebook I’d love to hear your feedback about the podcast: Please leave a review of The Masterful Coach on your favorite podcast platform.

Confidence is often the missing component when setting your ideal income goals. If you don’t believe they’re possible to achieve, if you don’t believe you belong in the “club” of success (however you define success)... you’ll struggle to accomplish your goals, income or otherwise. However, as you work on confidence, it’s also important to check in with yourself: Why do you want what you believe you want? What is fueling your confidence? To talk about all this, I interviewed master life coach, advanced certified feminist coach and podcast host, Amy Latta. Because Amy specializes in helping coaches feel confident and get paid, I knew she would deliver some amazing encouragement and insights. She did not disappoint. Amy shares about flipping on potential, investing versus profit, hugging your dreams, rejecting the should, and so, so much more. This episode is so packed, you’ll probably want to listen to it more than once. “We can go anywhere once we show our minds that we can create a coaching business that makes our life easier right now.” – Amy Latta What You’ll Learn Flipping on potential Investing versus profit Savoring and celebrating Wow and Oww, Gap and Gain Hugging your dreams and your why Rejecting the should Loving your own experience Contact Info and Recommended Resources Podcast episodes that pairs well with this one:  Impact and 7-figures: An interview with Katrina Ubell How to charge for coaching even when you're scared to  Books and Programs: 90 Day Year program and The Oww & Wow Guidebook (FREE download) by Todd Herman The Gap and The Gain by Dan Sullivan Connect with Amy Latta Amy Latta is a confidence master life coach, advanced certified feminist coach and podcast host. She specializes in helping coaches feel confident and get paid. Amy in her own words… “When I began coaching 10 years ago, I invested in every ‘how to be a life coach’ and 'how to be an entrepreneur’ program I could get my hands on. What I really needed was a program that taught me the confidence to be me. To actually believe I could do something I’d never done before. To rely on what I already knew. To set big goals and solve for how to achieve them – without needing the achievement of the goal to verify that I deserve to be in the life coaching space. To stare these rules I’ve been following my whole life in the face. And dismantle every single one of them. So I can finally feel free to create the coaching business that rocks my clients’ worlds and lights me up every day. The programs didn’t exist. So I created them.” amylatta.com Facebook– IAmAmyLatta  Instagram - IAmAmyLatta  Work with Amy: amylatta.com/work-with-me  Check out Amy’s podcast, The Confident Coaches Podcast: amylatta.com/podcast  Get Amy’s FREE video, The 3 Secrets (to creating self-confidence that signs clients): amylatta.com/coachconfidence  Connect with Molly Claire The 10K Accelerator: Let Molly help you dial in your message and set your goal to make your first 10K or your next 10K. mollyclaire.com/work-with-me Get Molly’s FREE 10K Goal Tracker: This complimentary goal tracker will help you organize your plan so you can make money + make a difference, one client at a time.

Charging for your coaching can be uncomfortable, maybe even a bit scary. It might feel as though it’s taking away from the good that you’re doing or that, somehow, it doesn’t fit your character because you’re not money-motivated.  But let me assure you, charging for your coaching can fit appropriately and comfortably into your practice, even when you’re scared. Through this episode, I want to help you look differently at charging, as well as share my personal experience with how paying full price for my coach, even when my finances were dismal, brought me so much good and empowerment.  “What is possible for your client when they have the opportunity to put their money on their future? To bet on their future and to make their dreams happen?” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn What you don’t need What you do need A conversation A way to pay A schedule Value of charging Contact Info and Recommended Resources The 10K Accelerator: Let Molly help you dial in your message and set your goal to make your first 10K or your next 10K.

There’s always a nearly inexhaustible business To Do list. As coaches, our brains naturally bend toward caring for others, toward inner work and healing, yet so much of what we need to do is outer work: sales, marketing, accounting, and the like. For many of us, it’s like learning a foreign language and thus takes a lot of time. But in accomplishing all the business things, are you carving out enough time, booking enough sessions, to bring in the money you need?  In this episode, I share a bit of wisdom regarding how to focus on what makes you money, as I do much more in depth for those in the The 10K Accelerator. I discuss why we don’t always focus on making money, what can get in the way, and how we can address those things differently, so we can make more money. I hope what I cover in this episode helps you get started and that, perhaps, helping you even more personally and specifically is in our future together. “Making a decision about creating a certain result is very powerful.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Reasons we don’t focus on making money Do the money goal math Make that unwavering decision Hold yourself accountable Useful or fearful changes Examine how you think about failure Appropriate action from perceived failure Contact Info and Recommended Resources The 10K Accelerator: Let Molly help you dial in your message and set your goal to make your first 10K or your next 10K.

Getting any kind of break from your growing business may seem impossible. There’s always something that needs attention. As ambitious coaches, determined to accomplish big things for ourselves and our businesses, we can allow far too much time to go by between breathers. We easily assign more to ourselves than any human being can really realistically accomplish. Of course, the biggest danger in this fast-paced, intensely focused business building is we can burn out. That's why it’s not only healthy but it's absolutely essential to learn how to take a break from your business, and how to take it well. Implementing this into my own life, I’ve crafted and successfully executed some mental and practical techniques and steps to smooth both getting away and returning. I’m eager to share these with you, whether you use them for your business, your personal life or both. I hope these concepts are as much of a help to you as they are to me. “When I came back to my desk, I had a lovely welcome letter from myself… Such an amazing gift that I was able to give my future self before taking that time.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Correctly placed worth Dedicate to making space Plan Commit Prepare and execute lists Cover your absence Cover your return Be intentional Support yourself Problem solve Welcome yourself back Gift yourself a letter Organize Download your takeaways Contrast and clarify Leverage fresh perspective Contact Info and Recommended Resources Podcast episode: New Year Transitions: How to Succeed Advanced Certification Training: Join the Waitlist Connect with Molly Claire COACHING BUSINESS A BIT STUCK?

Limiting beliefs can really hold us back but freedom from them is attainable. As coaches, we have the beautiful and life-giving ability to help others unshackle from old beliefs. We can help them form and embrace new beliefs that propel them onto better things. Since limiting beliefs touch every area of our clients’ lives, you’re bound to bump into areas that were not your original focus. One very likely area is parenting. And since being a parent is very special, I want to share with you 6 keys to coaching moms. Before we begin, allow me to encourage you: No matter your coaching niche, this episode still holds great value for you. What I share can be related to coaching dads or even individuals who aren’t parents. Inevitably, everyone is going to have fears and insecurities. It’s our honor, as coaches, to help them see the things they think are challenges and frustrations in different light. To present the thought that, perhaps, these could serve to provide healing opportunities, and to reveal beliefs they would do well to release. “The self-work, and the self-connection, truly is the foundation for all relationships.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn 4 powerful reasons for surface level work Surface level work distraction Relationship foundations: Self-work Fostering connection ‘The Mom Role’ challenge Validate rather than dismiss Contact Info and Recommended Resources Advanced Certification Training: Join the Waitlist Connect with Molly Claire FEELING STUCK IN YOUR COACHING BIZ?

Even though the new year has only just begun, it can be tempting to feel like we’re already behind, like we should be seeing results from the changes we want to implement.

Change is inevitable. But transitioning into change isn’t easy. Having a plan can make it better. And in particular, having a shift in perspective can go a long way to making things easier.  There is so much power in leaning into change. That's why, as we head into 2023, I want to offer some thoughts and ideas I hope will help you. First of all, let’s just embrace this truth: things typically don’t go to plan. Emotions rise and we find ourselves arguing with reality. But if we approach the unknowns with a ready, equipped mindset, it can make all the difference. “Whatever changes… whatever transitions you’re making, remember: you can’t know how to do them until you’re actually doing them.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Not quite to plan Embracing the unknowns Easing into it Learning through doing Connect with Molly Claire FEELING STUCK IN YOUR COACHING BIZ?
